[QUOTE="warhawk, post: 88854, member: 431"] IMO if TT had seen a team with a realistic chance to make a run by adding some players around BF he would have considered it. A monumental task it would have been to go this route. To give BF the support he needed we would have had to pull two guards out of a hat for one. Other than Hutchinson there just hasn't been those guys available. We've all been looking for this for a year and a half and they just haven't been there. But let's say they were. We pick up two quality guards. We shore up the WR position. We go the route of another running back with Green's health issues. Then there is the defense. To make a realistic run.... We need to replace Grady, sign or replace Kampman, replace Carroll and get a quality backup CB. Get two outside LB's and assume Poppy and Manning will suffice as backups. Replace Roman and get a decent backup DB. Then there is the Special Teams issues. You have to be good there to make a realistic run in the playoffs. Anything shy of addressing these issues would not be realistic in making a run in the playoffs. I don't see what TT has done involving ego. He assessed this team accurately in being sorely in need of depth and quality in a significant number of positions. Yes, he could have gone the "popular" route and probably won over more fans. But this team was not three or four good FA's from being a contender. With the lack of depth we had it would have been nothing more than a pretender. [/QUOTE]
